High altitude Cab from Argentina. The color is inky red with a watery rim. Rich ripe dark fruit and oak scents. Time has served this wine well! The fore-pallet is again, fruit forward, velvety! The mid pallet has a great counter-balance composed of bold, oaky, and earthy flavors. The finish is long, slightly spicy, with strong tannings. Definitely a good wine; fruit is high but everything else falls right into place. — 5 years ago

100% Tempranillo Blanco 12% ABV
I have had Tempranillo Blanco in blends, but never 100% until now.
Nice fruit quality, med+ acidity. Simple characteristics, clean, crisp, “lemony”, straw. Could easily be called a simple Sauv. Blanc or young vine Viura in a blind tasting. Non-descript. Food/table wine. Good with Turkey and sides.
Very nice, recommended, would purchase again.
Personal preference for a 100% blanco from Rioja is Viura. Originally went to store for ‘Vetiver’ (Viura from Ontañón), store had a data entry error and was stocked with Tempranillo Blanco in its place. Happy Accident. — 5 years ago

The flavor profile is kind of like Cab Franc, with notes of dehydrated strawberry (like Special K red berries), mushroom, and a kiss of oak. Medium bodied. Wonderful acid, and still had some tannins. — 5 years ago
